Spain vs. Italy

George doing his best ruin a fantastic closing ceremony

The concensus seems to be that it was indeed The Incredible theme music, smashing choice by the organisers, well done one and all.

I don’t agree with UEFA building atmosphere with blaring music but I can accept Intro by The XX.

Superb choices in music there for that closing ceremony, a success all round.

OK, Italy it is. Forza Italia.

Smashing anthem from Italy. Incredibles, the xx, now that. What a soundtrack!

Italy getting their full backs impressively far forward.

Spanish playing much more direct in the early stages

Much more attacking intent than we’ve come to expect ayway. Italy haven’t settled in midfield yet.

Italy dropping DDR or Pirlo between the centre backs when they get on the ball - allows them to get the full backs forward and it’s almost like the formation they played in the first game.

Super football :clap:

Superb pass from Iniesta. Absolutely superb.

Oops…

David Silva doesnt score too many headers. Great start from Spain, hope they continue to go for it.

What a through ball from Iniesta :o

Balotelli wagging the finger at that cunt Busquets, pick your moment Mario.

Italy have reacted well to going behind, that was a vital fingertip connection from Iker.

The three centre backs in the lineup is giving Italy an aerial threat from those set pieces.

We’re struggling, we’ve started the previous two games slowly and we’ve done so tonight. Looking dangerous from corners though.

Pirlo hits a lovely corner

Great tackle from Pirlo. Spain looking very threatening, far more purpose about them this evening

Chiellini off injured, I think he has been exposed tonight at left back so it may not be a bad thing.
